I personally feel that this new design is terrible. Why change a good thing? Not only is everything just wider, it is hard to find anything. Especially if you are used to the way it did look. And now my images are huge! What happened to the thumbnails.

I strongly feel that Facebook will be losing out if they launch it. Therefore I created a group so Facebook will know that people don't like it:

I just don't like the layout. I want the feed centered. I like the new features, the layout just sucks. What would really be nice is an igoogle type thing where you can drag and drop the feed the search and what not.

I like the look of the homepage, but not the profiles (it's not compatible with all add-ons).

The Facebook makeover is much more impressive then the CNET makeover - ha! and Rafe's right, the next hot thing is mobile integration. Can't wait...

I really like the new facebook. i think the minor changes made a major difference. one complaint: they now of two separate links to access your profile one saying your 'full name' and one saying, well, 'profile'. I'm not sure if its just a test or not, but it's pointless. but over all i like the layout and the look of the website now.

I don't like the new format for Facebook and now they have deleted my account without explanation. I did have a picture of 2 of my angel cats instead of a picture of me on my profile page, everything else was all about me and no one else. I know a lot of people have had their profiles deleted too, they do this without any warning that it was going to happen.

I have written the administrators asking why this was done. I hope they do respond to me soon. I didn start another profile this time I have left the place for the picture blank, I am not going to do a lot to my profile until I get an acceptable answer to my e mail.

I was in the group who thinks that the old design was better, but in time you understand that the new one is more "dynamic". now it is easier to search, easier to find information and yes, you don't have to wait hours to upload your photos

I love the new look for FACEBOOK.
It has the separate sections for each area and very organized.

I hate the new design and hope it's changed back to the old one or something close to it.

I hate the new design as well, and what is worse is we no longer have the option of using the old design. I've lost most of the apps, can't find ANYTHING, and it's just annoying. I don't even use any apps b/c i don't know where they are or anything like that. I just write on peoples walls. I want the old facebook back!

this is a excellent design by facebook. it really gives them the look and feel of the old facebook before all the clutter of applications. it's a much needed improvement that distances facebook from myspace even more.

I do appreciate the changes much more now. Before they were so shicking it was difficult to navigate, but now I prefer the design so much more.
Anyway, if you don't enjoy it, feel free to edit it
